[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incredible_Culp:
---> MODS CAN DELETE OR MOVE THIS POST NOW <--- didnt realize what section i was in till after i posted =/

hey guys, well like above said, i jus have a simple question that seems weird.. i mind you that im new to the vibrant, im coming from the nexus 1..

so when i flash roms, (which i do regularly lol) and the op says the rom comes with a custom kernel and i go to "About phone" the kernel name didnt change (at a glance). are the numbers diff..?

--> on the nexus 1 the name of the kernel was the name on the kernel version.. (not numbers)

is the kernel that comes with the rom installed but it doesnt show up on the kernel version?

Example: my kernel version right now is 2.6.32.9.. but when i flash a rom that comes with its' custom kernel, those numbers dont change.. if they do, im not paying close attention (lol) but like i said, i just glance at it because im used to the kernel version changing to whatever the custom kernel is named... if that makes sense...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
It will not show that you're running a custom kernel. So that's normal.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incredible_Culp:
Great, thank you! :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtone:
not on settings.. but on setCPU info tab, it will tell which kernel you're running

PS. wrong section :rollseyes:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Incredible_Culp:
.. thanks.

--> i coulda SWORE i pressed the question forum.. i realized i didnt after i got thru posting.. my bad =/

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HondaCop:
Besides the obvious free up of local space on the EVO, what are other advantages of setting up apps2sd? I am running MIUI and would like to give it a shot if worth it. Thanks in advance.

PS. My name is HondaCop and I approve this message.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewZJ:
I ran it for a while, had my card partitioned and everything, the zipalign bonus is fantastic but that's about it, I formatted my card recently and haven't looked back to set it back up

if you has class 10 then go for it, my class 6i didn't notice much improvement, class 2 dont bother
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HondaCop:
I've got an 8GB Class 6 card. I think I will not mess with it for now, seeing that performance wise there isn't much to be gained. Thanks for your response, buddy.

PS. My name is HondaCop and I approve this message.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willy900wonka:
Which applications to sdcard?

I tried both. I'm now with a2sd from darktremore.

It has many nice features, like zip align and cache relocate.

I had my apps2sd (file based) continuously loose the symlink pointers. May be fixed now ?

I tried it a2sd on my hero and haven't looked back. I do run a class 10 sdcard. For power consumption . Class 4 would probably have been adequate. Good luck in which ever you choose.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HondaCop:
Yea, I prefer a2sd from darktremor as well for its nice features. I'm just wondering what are the advantages performance wise by having all apps and dalvik cache on the sdcard other than the obvious gain of space on the phone.

PS. My name is HondaCop and I approve this message.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wayno-san:
I think that it's just for space. Some say it's better to leave the dalvick on the phone but I really need the space so I move it anyway and it seems to work OK even on class 4.

What I'm not sure about is how Titanium backup treats the apps that have been moved... do they back up correctly or not? Right now I'm having problems with apps that I restored using Titanium backup (they won't update); but that's after moving to a different ROM than the one I used previously.

I'm also not sure why some programs still appear with the option to "Move to SD card" under manage applications. Shouldn't have they already been moved automatically by app2sdext?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 857253:
If I'm not mistaken, dt app2sdext works by fooling android that the ext partition is in fact the phone storage itself, hence why some apps show the option move to sd, android believes the apps are on main memory...

hope this helps!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just_s:
DTa2sd uses symlinks, so there is no ill effect on TB whatsoever. I have been running DTa2sd for a few months and I have nothing but good to say about it. I had one issue and it turned out to be user error (me being that user LOL.)

And for Honda, I can't quantify any impact on performance, but I unquestionably noticed a snappier performance and stability improvement after moving my dalvik to my cache partition, not to mention having almost 300 apps and still a ton of free space. As for being worth the trouble, I guess I would ask what trouble? The process was simple as can be, so yes, definitely it is worth the effort.

Also I disagree with the second post, I have a15GB class 2 and I'm still seeing benefits. Of course when I use the SD test app, it almost always shows up as a class 4 or 6. That could be a product of a2sd or MIUI as the same test shows class 2 on Evio2. YMMV
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wayno-san:
So you have a cache partition plus an ext partition on your Sd Card? If so, how big does the cache partition have to be for dalvik to fit?

I saw a number of comments NOT to create a cache partition on the SD card for done reason so I did not.

I re-flashed MikFroyo 4.5 AFTER setting up the EXT partition and it looks like everything got setup automatically this time around. It's been running great! The nice thing is that it doesn't screw up widgets like Froyo app2sd.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimbdd:
on miui all you have to do is format the sd card properly. The rom has the rest built in.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tErbo b00st:
Will Apps2SD allow one to wipe and install a new ROM and not have to use Ti backup to reinstall all of the apps?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentphantom:
More than likely not, since many ROMS do not support dta2sd. I would just stick with TB since you can specifically restore the apps you need/want
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
It was my understanding that if under settings/applications, you don't 'move to sd' any apps, then by default dt a2sd will automatically install/move all apps to the ext3 partition (sd).

Conversely, if you restore an app using TI that was not originally moved to sd (using standard froyo apps2sd function), and if dt a2sd is still installed and configured for all apps to go to sd, then that app will be restored back to the dt a2sd on the ext3 partition.

Please read above carefully before responding.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Just_s:
No, have small swap and 960mb ext3. Once a2sd is on, use one of the dalvik move commands.

I know people are always recommending this or that on here (don't use havs, don't use sbc, clockwork is not thorough, don't move dalvik, blah, blah, blah). My stance is: nandroid and give it a go, but that's just me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live2ride96:
Whether it's worth it or not is up to the individual. Everybody's gonna be a little different in how they use their phone. The sacrifice you're making is that reading from SD is slower than reading from internal memory. How much slower in real world situations? I honestly couldn't tell you, as I haven't actually tried it. I've found if I'm even getting close to running out of internal memory for apps, it means I've become an "app pack rat". So I simply clean house of all the stuff I downloaded cuz it seemed cool, but never actually used. Then again, I also don't have a ton of games, which are some of the largest apps. With a class 6 or 10 card, I'd imagine the difference would be minimal though, so if you need the room, and are willing to give up a little bit of speed, try it. You can always go back.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agentphantom:
Excellent commentary, a lot of common sense :)
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
There are so many version of Galaxy Tab. Currently I have T-mobile and I have the HD2 as my phone. Of course my HD2 is modded like crazy and it has gone through so many ROM's/NANDS with both Android and WP7.

I love to tinker with gadgets.

Anyway, can you please tell me which version of the Galaxy Tab should I get so that I can hack it and put in different ROMS on it to maximize its potential.

On a side note: I currently have the $15 250MB/month data from T-mobile.

What advice do you have in terms of getting data for the Galaxy Tab? Should I just replace my HD2 with the Galaxy Tab and use the bluetooth head set to make and receive calls?
[Galaxy Tab General] snipestech:
I use the tab without a data plan and tether of my evo using wirless tether for root unlimited on sprint network.
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
Is the T-mobile version is the easiest to hack?
[Galaxy Tab General] woneill1701:
Currently the TMO tab is seriously locked down in two areas:

1) TMO does not want you using a regular phone SIM in your Tab to get 3G data. They are filtering the Tabs by their IMEI number and will block all network access if you try to use a regular phone account - they want you to spend an additional $40 per month for a separate data plan.

2) The TMO tab has a crippled modem that will not allow voice through. If you flash a Euro ROM that has full phone capabilities, then the only modems that work for both voice and data are currently limited to EDGE speeds. (Rotohammer has created a partial solution that allows you to swap modems witout needing to connect to a PC, but you are still blocked by the IMEI filtering.)

Nobody has, as yet, found a clean complete solution to T-Mobile's restrictions - but the battle is not over yet!

Currently the best solution if you want to use the tab as a phone is to go 100% AT&T.

Alternatively, if all you want is data on your tab, each of the service providers has different levels of pricing and subsidies for their data plans - along with coverage and data speed.

The CDMA tabs come with 2GB internal memory, while the GSM tabs come with 16GB.

Other than that, you should look to balance total cost of ownership (data + device) against service quality. Each provider has a different emphasis.

Alternatively, you could wait for a WIFI Tab...
[Galaxy Tab General] Earthbrain:
Thank you very much. That was really informative.

I was about to buy the T-mobile version from Craigslist becase it is selling a brand new one for $400. I was going to use it as a phone and using bluetooth earpiece for talking and calling.

However, having read your post, I think that I will not be able to buy it because I have T-mobile cell service.

That is so unfortunate.
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
The hacks are identical for all gsm versions of the tab. The only difference is you have to select the modem that is appropriate for your carrier and region.
[Galaxy Tab General] ultramag69:
You mean to say you don't have WIFI on your Tab? Geez, and I thought us Aussies got it tough. Usually we get the **** deals but this time I'm smiling. Data and phone calls, 3G+and wifi. Now if we got a good data plan included by Telstra......
[Galaxy Tab General] itsjusttim:
i was wondering if tango works on tmobile tab on wifi only with a bluetooth headset.
[Galaxy Tab General] lateefkirk:
version

I've got a version question, What would I need to do to get an ATT sim working on a T Mobile Tab, also would I be able to get voice and data, and at what data speeds?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab General] woneill1701:
1) Unlock the SIM

2) Flash a Euro ROM

You would have voice and EDGE data speeds.

(There are already threads detailing both 1 and 2...)
[Galaxy Tab General] itsjusttim:
If I use it on wifi only, without a sim will it still allow for wifi calling (tango) and would it be through build in mic or headset?
[Galaxy Tab General] woneill1701:
Cannot speak for Tango.

I use Skype on WiFi via a wired headset and/or speakerphone. Signal quality Skype-Skype and Skype-phone is generally very good. I have not tried a bluetooth headset. (Note: By default, some of the US tabs will not pair with bluetooth headset.)
[Galaxy Tab General] itsjusttim:
Thank you for your quick reply and thorough response.
[Nexus One General] victorhooi:
Hi,

I've just upgraded to 2.3 on my Nexus One, and I'm trying to setup the in-built SIP functionality with my Pennytel VoIP account.

I went to Settings, Call Settings, then Accounts (under Internet call settings).

I've setup a new account with my Pennytel username and password, and the Pennytel server. I also setup the Auhentication username.

When I try to make a SIP call (get on a WiFi connection, try to call number, pick Internet Call, then my Pennytel acount) - it simply tries to call, then does "Call Ended" right away.

e wit

I've tried with a SIP proxy and without one.

Also, I've tried CSipSimple on this phone with the Pennytel account, and it seems to work fine, calls through etc.

Is there any way to diagnose what's going on? Or get more detailed error messages for the Android 2.3 inbuilt stack.

Cheers?

Victor

So, am getting kinda upset here... Is no one else experiencing problems with XDA app? Are we posting in wrong place? Cause from what I have seen of the forum as a whole people are usually pretty quick to reply, or direct you to an answer. I am getting more and more fed up with this app by the day. Can't close threads without taking me back to app boot up. Its killing my data. No internet at house temporarily. So it is major issue for me right now. Very disappointed in this app right now. Please help, someone.

[General Questions and Answers] Dr.GreenLeaf:
My issue does not have to do with adding shortcuts or favorites. I open a thread to read the posts and when I am done and want to go back, or close the thread it reboots the app....any ideas, help would be great.
